Why ship to South America with Send My Bag
South America attracts travellers, digital nomads and professionals looking for new experiences, lifestyle changes and longer stays abroad. From major cities to more remote destinations, the region offers a wide range of opportunities.

Shipping to Brazil
Brazil is one of the largest and most well known countries in South America, with cities such as São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro attracting international visitors and longer term stays.
Customers often choose to send personal belongings ahead, particularly when travelling for extended periods. Planning your shipment carefully can help ensure a smoother delivery process.

Door to door delivery helps simplify the process, even when shipping to more complex regions.
Relocating to South America
Relocating to South America often involves additional planning, particularly when it comes to documentation and customs requirements.
Many customers choose to send essential items ahead while travelling with only what they need for the journey. This makes the travel experience easier and allows time to prepare for receiving shipments at the destination.
Understanding local requirements in advance can make a significant difference to how smoothly your belongings arrive.
Unaccompanied baggage to South America
Unaccompanied baggage means your items travel separately from you.
This can be a practical option when moving personal belongings internationally, especially on long haul journeys. Instead of managing multiple suitcases, you ship your items directly to your destination.
For South America, this approach can help simplify travel, although it is important to ensure all documentation is prepared correctly before shipping.
Sending parcels to South America
If you only need to send a smaller shipment, international parcel delivery can be a useful alternative.
Courier collection offers door to door delivery along with tracking, giving you visibility throughout the journey. This can be particularly helpful when sending important documents or smaller personal items.
As with larger shipments, checking destination specific requirements in advance is recommended.
How the shipping process works
How it works is straightforward, quick and easy.
Start by getting a quote online, enter your collection and delivery details, and choose a date that works with your travel plans.
Once booked, pack your items securely, attach your labels and we collect directly from your address. You can then track your shipment as it makes its way to your destination.
Customs and documentation when shipping to South America
Customs procedures in South America can be more detailed than in other regions, and requirements vary between countries.
Providing accurate descriptions of your items, along with correct values and supporting documentation, is essential. This helps reduce the likelihood of delays or additional checks during customs clearance.
In some cases, shipments may be subject to duties, taxes or additional processing requirements depending on the destination.
Comparing shipping with airline baggage fees
Airline baggage allowances on long haul flights can be limited, and excess baggage fees can quickly increase the overall cost of travel.
Shipping your belongings separately allows you to avoid managing multiple heavy suitcases and gives you a clearer idea of costs in advance.
For longer stays, sending items ahead can often be the more practical option.
